PACE LIKE FIRE NORTH ACADEMY | YORKSHIRE
SERIOUS FAST BOWLING DEVELOPMENT IN THE NORTH
An 18 Sunday winter programme designed around individual fast bowling needs and not generic coaching.
OCTOBER - MARCH | SUNDAYS, 11:00-13:00 | AGES 11-21
THE INDIVIDUAL DEVELOPMENT PROBLEM
SAME AGE DOESN'T MEAN SAME NEEDS
One bowler may need more force. Another better sequencing. Another greater robustness, more control or a clearer way to transfer training into competition.
Giving every bolwer the same drills and cues is not individual development. Pace Like Fire North starts by understanding the bowler, then uses the PaceLab system to give the winter clearer direction.

FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS
CLEAR ANSWERS BEFORE
THE NEXT STEP.
Question 1: Why are 2 venues used?
The programme moves from The Cricket Asylum in Term 1 to SHU in Term 2. The coaching system and development direction continue across both environment. We want the programme to be as accessible as possible around the North.
Question 2: Is this only for county bowlers?
No. The programme is for ambitious fast bowlers who are ready to engage with structured development. Current level is considered alongside attitude, needs and suitability.
Question 3: Is this programme individualised?
Yes. The group follows a structured curriculum, while profiling, observation and coaching are used to identify individual priorities.
Question 4: What happens between sunday?
The approved model includes development level remote support across six months. The final programme information will set out the exact 2026/27 support package.
